In a nutshell

Accoil helps you find the leads that matter.

By tracking product usage, activation, and health, you’ll spot high-intent users, tailor outreach, and close with confidence.

Whats the lowdown?

Product-Qualified Leads (PQLs) are users who’ve done something meaningful in your product. They’re past “just curious”—they’ve found value, and they’re worth a follow-up. ​

Accoil helps you spot these high-intent leads by analyzing real user behavior — activation, feature usage, and ongoing health. Your sales team gets a clear signal on where to focus.

Why this matters?

When you rely on product signals—not just form fills—you:

  • Focus on users with real engagement
  • Spot who’s activated and finding value
  • Add health scores to see who’s sticking around
  • Personalize outreach with data-backed timing
  • Boost conversions by connecting when it counts

Key Steps

1: Define What a “Good” Lead Looks Like

Start by listing behaviors that show intent and value. For example, in a project management tool:

  • Created an account
  • Invited 2+ teammates
  • Set up a project
  • Uploaded files
  • Scheduled events
  • Completed a task

Pair these with:

  • Activation Rate – % of key steps completed
  • Health Score – Level of ongoing engagement

2: Track & Engage

  • Use Accoil’s thresholds to monitor activation and health ie "sales-ready" leads
  • Set alerts
  • Customize your pitch based on what they’ve done.

Step 3: Tailoring strategy by opportunity size

Think of these as guides—adjust them based on your product and sales cycle.

Deal SizeWhen to Engage
Small70–100% activated
Mid-size50–80% activated
Large30–50% activated

4: Convert with confidence

Use product data to guide the conversation. ​ Show value. Educate where needed. Propose when activation + health are solid.

5: Keep improving

  • Keep an eye on what’s working—and what’s not.
  • Refine your PQL criteria with data from wins and losses.
  • Over time, you’ll build a sharper, more reliable sales engine.

The main takeaway...

PQLs aren’t guesses. They’re signals.

With Accoil, your whole team works from the same playbook—focused on real product behavior, not assumptions. ​

When everyone sees the same signals, everyone wins.
